About
Hi, my name is Jane Chambers. I am a woman, a mother, a sister, an aunt, a dog sitter, a rose grower, a Christian, an avoider of house work and a Psychologist. I have been a book binder, a nurse, a disability worker, a cross stitcher and an avid reader of regency romance to name a few.
​
As women we can get so busy with the roles and responsibilities in our life that we leave no space for ourselves. We identify as a list of titles that relate to how other people see us and what we do. Our true, authentic self is often consumed by life's pressures and others expectations.
​
Jane's Place has been created to offer a space that gives you the opportunity to carve out time for yourself. A space to acknowledge, explore and address those parts of your life that resulted in pain. A space to learn to love all the parts of yourself that got lost along life's journey. A time to reconnect with who you are, and a foundation to step forward into growth.
​
I have an interest in working with women across all aspects of their life, particularly women who are going through transitions in personal, relationship, health or professional settings.
​
As a practicing Christian I value working with women who want to integrate their Christian faith and experiences into their healing and growth journey. I am also experienced working with women who hold roles in the church setting and those who identify as being traumatised by a religious environment and who wish to move towards recovery.​​
As a Psychologist with nearly 20 years expertise and experience working in the mental health, health, disability, occupational rehabilitation and employee wellness sectors I have a diverse skill set. Since completing my psychology degree in 2005 I have completed further training in the following therapeutic approaches:
-
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
-
Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT)
-
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)​
